Washing facilities - List of Manufacturers, Suppliers, Companies and Products

We assist in creating products (kitchen and bathroom) through human-centered living engineering.

Based on the survey results regarding care facilities, we will introduce several points to consider when planning and designing equipment such as kitchens and washrooms.

[Investigation by Human and Life Engineering] In Kanagawa Prefecture, where a variety of elderly housing and facilities are concentrated, we conducted a survey on the current kitchen and washroom equipment conditions, as well as related shared facilities and services, focusing on service-equipped housing for the elderly, residential-type paid nursing homes, and some nursing homes with care. [Items to Consider When Determining Specifications for Care Kitchens and Washrooms] ■ Target Floor Area It is believed that the specifications for care kitchens and washrooms should be considered based on floor area rather than facility compatibility. The reason is that, at present, the age and physical condition of residents, as well as the usage and specifications of kitchens and washrooms, seem to be strongly related to the floor area. The floor area can be divided into three categories: - 18–20 square meters - 25–30 square meters - 35 square meters or more Considering the facility's adaptability and its relation to various systems, it is deemed wise and efficient to determine the specifications for new care kitchens and washrooms targeting 18–25 square meters. In the case of service-equipped housing for the elderly, the basic floor area is 25 square meters or more. However, if it is possible to secure an area of 7 (25-18) square meters multiplied by the number of rooms in the shared area, it is possible to have the room area as small as 18 square meters.
